Teaching and AI

With tools that can write a “passable” paper, how do we adjust our assessment and teaching practices accordingly? Do we allow students to use it, and engage in discussions of how they will use it in the discipline work and careers? What authentic assessment practices keep students engaged in learning while not overburdening teachers? 

This page provides some preliminary learning materials along with opportunities to discuss these topics online and on campus.
